![]() On June 28, 2006 the German Parliament gave its consent for the procurement of 149 DINGO 2 all-protected transport vehicles made by Krauss-Maffei Wegmann. The contract totalling 109 million euros will be awarded shortly. In addition to the 52 vehicles already procured in 2005, the German Armed Forces will thus receive further cross-country and air-portable wheeled vehicles meeting the requirements for maximum mobility and optimum crew protection on the battlefield.
The DINGO 2 is available in several mission versions. An NC detector vehicle offers space for five crew members. Nuclear and chemical combat agents can be detected and analysed in the NBC protected large safety cell of the DINGO 2. As an ambulant emergency vehicle with its medical equipment on board, the DINGO 2 permits mobile initial medical treatment of patients under ballistic, mine and NBC protection. It accommodates four crew and either two injured personnel or one contaminated patient in a personnel treatment chamber.
The DINGO 2 is a consistent upgrade of the DINGO 1 all-protected transport vehicle fielded in 2000 and used in many international missions. In its current patrol and security version, it offers space for up to eight crew and affords maximum protection against modern hand-held weapons, artillery fragments, anti-personnel and anti-tank mines as well as against NBC agents. The UNIMOG chassis of high cross-country mobility provides the vehicle with maximum speeds of more than 90 kph and a radius of action of roughly 1,000 km. Moreover, the DINGO 2 is airportable on the C160 Transall, C130 Hercules and A400M transport aircraft. |
